Happy Birthday dear Chip!!! Wishing you the very best for the year to come!
I was paging through my images looking for something special for you and kept on coming back to my Namib desert images! I know that the vast, acrid space speaks to you too - across oceans and continents! I truly hope we can someday visit the Namib together! :)
Hugs, Carin xx

I like the composition of this, an interestingly full of nothing landscape. I wanted to say the pic is grainy but thought perhaps that might have been too subtle!! Lol.

Gosh, not like you can walk that barefoot, huh? But I see the tire tracks... Wonderful view!

Oh I can really dig the POV, DOF, and especially the myriad of textures in this excellent composition, Carin! Flip-flops not allowed on this surface.

OOOH! My favorite desert! OK, I haven't been there yet, but it's still my favorite desert. I can even forgive it for not having any woodlice, but it might have something interesting and with lots of legs, I just hope it isn't poisonous too. This is quite nice. I love the vastness; it just goes on, and on, and on (and on some more.) And yeah, I agree that it's probably not too friendly to flip-flops, but you never know. I love the foreground rock and the mountains in the background; they come together perfectly, especially with the darkness of the rock and the increasing paleness of the gritty, pebbly sand. It does look a bit Mars-like too, only warmer. Needless to say, I love this shot, and yeah...I really wanna see that desert, and smell it too...there's always something about the smell of a place that makes it immediate and somehow real. Thank you for the birthday dedication! This is quite a marvelous one, and most-definitely a favorite!

Been falling a bit behind on my comments again. This is a grand scene. My desert experiences are all from Southern California, Nevada and Arizona. The amazing thing to me is how much life there really is in what looks like a vast wasteland to others. I'll bet your scene is teaming with life...particularly at night. I like the way you've accented the open spaces. Mighty fine photo Carin:) I am sure this was right up Chip's alley...so much different from Chicago!
